| + | It is important to note that, as of 0.31.08, all non-military skills are apparently bugged, and will not gain in attributes no matter how much they are worked. Since attributes now rust as well, this means that the attributes of all non-military dwarves will continuously decline as your fort goes on, and with only a few attributes represented by military skills, some attributes (including memory, which works as a multiplier for rust rates) can become cripplingly low with no means of remedy aside from systematically replacing dwarves every few years. | ||
